301 More Ways to Have Fun at Work

Can't understand what the others are bellyaching about-I found this to be a quick entertaining read that was full of great ideas and suggestions. Unlike the multitude of other books about fostering fun and creativity in the workplace that try to pretend that they are speaking of a finely-tuned science with complex procedures-this book says it like it is-it's just fun!If you need an in-depth how-to book to have fun at work, trust me, this is the least of your problems.I took the suggestions for the "obstacle course race" and we had a fantastic time in my office-everyone came out of their "shells" (cubicles rather) and joined in the fun...there were people there that I didn't even know had a sense of humor...If you are looking for some long-winded analytical study of the concept of fun at work for the sake of fostering productivity and morale go elsewhere-this is just simple fun, fun to read, fun ideas, and fun to practice...NICE!

I have a small business and we have had to tighten our belts in this economy. The book gave me some good ideas of things to do to keep our team together and to maintain our productivity. We have already started implementing a lot of the things mentioned. I found the book fun and an easy read, yet ideas like the Hierarchy of Fun concept took me back to some of the basics that I have forgotten during these lean times.

Great humor, great cartoons and a fun read all around...and what excellent ideas!

Great little book, fun to read just for, well, the fun of it, if not for great ideas for office joviality. We actually tried out a few of these and thought they were great! People seemed in much better moods and worked better!

This book was filled with plenty of examples of what major corporations, as well as small independent mom-and-pop-shops do to encourage the concept of fun in the workplace, and how that in turn improves morale, productivity and the work environment as a whole. The bite-size pieces of information, written in a pleasingly anecdotal manner make it an easy read, and the cartoons and illustrations don't hurt either. I would recommend this book to anyone looking to incorporate the concept of fun into their workplace, actually, it's a good read just in and of itself without even being used for practical applications. NICE WORK!
